Subject: Different output of strftime in GCC/Cygwin compared to other comp

Hello

I recognized, that the output of the strftime function from GCC under Cygwin
looks quite different to the output of other compilers. I did not find any
hint to this difference in documentation or archives. Is there a reason
behind this or can it be influenced by some settings?

Output of:
= GCC 2.95.2 on Cygwin 1.2.2
--> Sat Aug 12 2000 13:23:12

Output of:
= GCC 2.95 on Redhat Linux 6.0
= Visual C++ 6.0 on NT 4.0
= aCC A.01.15 on HP-UX 10.20
--> 08/12/00 13:23:12

The code I used for this test is:   
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
struct tm theTime;
char theString[26];

  theTime.tm_sec = 12;    /* seconds after the minute - [0,59] */
  theTime.tm_min = 23;    /* minutes after the hour - [0,59] */
  theTime.tm_hour = 13;   /* hours since midnight - [0,23] */
  theTime.tm_mday = 12;   /* day of the month - [1,31] */
  theTime.tm_mon = 7;     /* months since January - [0,11] */
  theTime.tm_year =100;   /* years since 1900 */
  theTime.tm_wday = 6;    /* days since Sunday - [0,6] */
  theTime.tm_yday = 225;  /* days since January 1 - [0,365] */
  theTime.tm_isdst = 1;   /* daylight savings time flag */
  strftime(theString, sizeof(theString), "%x %X", &theTime);
  printf("-->%s<--\n", theString);
  return(0);
}

Best regards,
Severin Mathis
